Steps:
- Puree the tomatoes, cucumber, bell peppers, grapes, parsley, red onion, garlic, vinegar and cumin in a blender until almost smooth. With the blender running, pour in the olive oil in a slow, steady stream until the gazpacho is smooth.
- Add 1/2 cup vegetable stock and blend again. If the gazpacho is too thick for you, add more stock until you achieve a consistency that you like. Season with salt and pepper and chill in a pitcher or bowl, about 1 hour. Drizzle each serving with olive oil and top with parsley.

SPICY HERBED SUMMER GAZPACHO
The soup we know as gazpacho originated in Spain's southern region of Andalusia. Farm harvesters traditionally prepared their lunches in the fields by pounding garlic, stale bread, water, olive oil, and salt in a large wooden bowl, forming a sort of nourishing paste to which they added cold water. Legend maintains that Christopher Columbus took barrels of this paste on his first voyage to the New World. Discovering tomatoes, cucumbers, and bell peppers in the Andes, he added them to the mix, creating the liquid salad we still call gazpacho. From "The Florida Keys Cookbook". Prep/Cook time DOES NOT include overnight refrigeration time.
